The Claude Littner Business SchoolThe Claude Littner Business

School is based in the heart

of west London, at the centre

of a highly lucrative business

district. Fifty percent of the

UK’s top 30 companies and

over 30,000 SMEs are based

there.

The school has strong links

with national and international

employers and some of the

most innovative companies in

the area. It provides individuals

with life-long learning and

training, giving them the

knowledge and skills to fl ourish

and to get their ideas off the

ground- whether they are

entrepreneurs.

The Cyprus Institute of Marketing (CIM)The Cyprus Institute of

Marketing has been operating

in Nicosia since 1978 and in

Limassol since 1984. Originally

set up to promote the science

of Marketing in Cyprus and

abroad, during the last

40 years CIM has evolved

into an all-round Business

School, offering an array of

programmes – from Marketing

and Management to Finance

& Accounting, Shipping,

and International Business &

Commercial Law.

Over the years, CIM has

provided the opportunity to

more than 5,000 students

to acquire world-class

qualifi cations and fulfi l their

aspirations. The majority of

these are individuals who had

missed out, for one reason or

another, on the opportunity

to study after graduating

from secondary school, yet

who always had the desire to

pursue learning, gain further

knowledge and qualifi cations,

and advance their careers.

Though CIM now serves

students from all ages and

all walks of life, it still offers

exclusively evening classes – in

order to cater for the needs

of working individuals. And

it still puts its emphasis on

combining theory and practice.

We are proud to be Cyprus’s

fi nest Business School. And

we are proud to offer the

best education at the most

affordable fees.

our job to ensure we give you all the information you need in as

interesting and varied a way as possible. So there will be lectures,

to-date training in the skills needed to be successful in the modern
